Hes apparantley failed to impress Fergie, but look at the stats when you compare to Berbatov!
Berbatov - £30.75m - 16 starts - 8 off bench - 7 goals
Owen - Free - 10 starts - 16 off bench - 7 goals
Theres talk that Owens wages will pay for Rooneys pay rise!

I feel a bit sorry for him. He hasn't been played a right lot in PL. Seem to be doing ok with just Rooney on his own

I just don't see why we signed him to do the role hes doing. If Fergie isn't impressed then maybe he should look at how hes using Owen! 10-15 minutes here and there isn't going to produce impressive displays!

Looks like you need to clear the wage bill a bit.

Can think of other players that should be offloaded!

If we really are in this position then it makes more sense to keep Owen!

Nah because he'll be on more than the likes of Mecheda, Welbeck, etc. who you can keep.

Yeah, but when you look at the stats I posted above, Berbatov isn't value for money.

The only reason he wont go is because you'll get about £15m max for him (if that) and then Fergie will be shown up as making a massive howler.

You'll have to sign some people as will need to replace Vidic and Rooney.

You know I knew that would be your reply. You and Nic are so predictable these days.

So are you with your replies about people being predictable.
BTW - I saw a few papers today saying Vidic would only go for about £16m

Some truth in?
You're saying Vidic isnt likely to leave this summer?
Next you'll be saying Owen has been so much of an asset this year that Fergie is offering him a new 5yr contract on £150k a week.

Sold/Leave, how has Owen done shit? He's scored, he's done a job, no reason to get rid.

It was more about you and babbling on about Rooney going when he clearly isn't it. Not sure how my reply makes you think I'll be saying that of Owen. Think you've cracked.

But the Vidic part is true, so therefore only 50% shit.
Rooney could go anyway, if times are hard a £100m offer may persuade Mr Glazer.
